Phentermine Causing Flushed Cheeks After Eating

I have been on Phentermine for a couple years and have noticed after eating my face gets hot and flushed. I have been tested for lupus along with other autoimmune diseases. The only one that came back a little high was rheumatoid arthritis. I stopped taking it and everything seemed to go back to normal. I had stopped for a month and a half. I started again and within 3 days my face was back to getting flushed and hot after meals. I could eat something as simple as a salad and it would happen. Anyone else have this happen?

Yes, Flushing has been found in women that take Phentermine.

Ref: Phentermine Flushing Study

Other side effects may include nausea, chest pain, itching, and back pain.

Have you consulted your doctor? It would be a good idea to do so, in order for them to check for other issues caused by taking it, such as elevated blood pressure.

Are you on any other medications?
